Jesus Christ. What fucking bond? My fiancée is Ukrainian. They fucking hate Russians. Not just now but always. They tried fucking with Ukraine for forever, even before there was Ukraine as it is now.

This is just weeb shit but for slavic nations

I am ukrainian and I confirm.

There are brotherly ties, relatives, but it's not a healthy family, russians always thought they are the only ones that matter, the rest is deviation.

Now it's so much more clear, ukrainians who were russian speaking and mildly russian friendly now hate russia more than anyone, being bombarded does that, they feel betrayed.

Got a Ukrainian family friend from the east side of Ukraine, spoke Russian as her primary language and knew some Ukrainian.

Once the invasion started, she vowed to never speak Russian again and spent months trying to get fluent in Ukrainian.

Wasn't Zelensky (I probably misspelled that) also primarily russian speaking before he went into politics?

[-] volodymyr@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

He was, yes. He speaks perfectly now.

[-] volodymyr@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Yeah, most of my formerly russian-speaking friends are like that. Tl

I had a weird coworker that claimed to be Ukrainian and is married to a Russian woman. Mysteriously had to go see his dying family member right before it all started and he has not been heard from again. I just feel like he was some kind of weird Russian spy or something. He would call her 10 times during his shift and spoke in Russian and had an air of manipulative "kindness" that made you really wonder what the fuck this guy was involved with.

hell don't most people around russia detest the country? like even if two countries with slavic influence hate each other they will probably shake hands on hating russia more..
